Destroyer soul crafting and high-cadence ballistic fire
Crafted at a Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil by combining Minishark, Illegal Gun Parts, 5 Shark Fin, and 20 Soul of Might harvested from The Destroyer. Emits a relentless torrent of musket balls or specialty ammunition at an Insanely fast cadence with a 7 use time, hitting for 25 base ranged damage and 1 knockback with 4% critical chance. It features an innate 50% chance to conserve ammo on every shot fired.
Mid-Hardmode boss progression and endgame rifle evolution
The Megashark is the premier ranged weapon for navigating mid-Hardmode. Paired with Cursed Bullet or Ichor Bullet, its relentless volume of fire easily overwhelms Skeletron Prime and Plantera. Its reliability and ammo efficiency allow rangers to maintain continuous pressure throughout prolonged encounters. It remains viable until late-game upgrades like the Chain Gun, Vortex Beater, or S.D.M.G. become available.
Trivia
- Its tooltip playfully refers to it as the Minisharks older brother.
- Combining its native 50% ammo conservation with an Ammo Box and Ammo Reservation Potion reduces bullet consumption to minimal rates.
